North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher

The North Carolina Aquariums include four unique coastal attractions: Pine Knoll Shores, Roanoke Island, Fort Fisher, and Jennette’s Pier. Each location offers hands-on exhibits, marine life encounters, and educational programs highlighting the state’s aquatic environments. From sea turtles and sharks to river otters and stingrays, families can explore North Carolina’s underwater world through interactive and conservation-focused experiences. Jennette’s Pier also serves as a coastal education center and ocean pier for fishing and programs.
